Commercial & Sponsorship
Mark.Covington@snapsponsorship.com 01483 617888 SNAP Sponsorship Ltd was launched by CEO Mark Covington with the support of Chairman Simon Pennock. Mark identified a methodology to enable rugby clubs to grow through sponsorship. Initially working with local businesses in a range of different fields, with the aim of identifying and nurturing long-term partnerships based upon mutual benefits. The demand for SNAP’s services quickly outgrew the manpower resources SNAP had at its disposal and in 2014 the decision was taken to automate the methodology, to enable all clubs, from any sport, at any level, to benefit from the approach to sponsorship which had been refined in the consultancy business. Development of the platform has resulted a fully integrated, one of a kind, sponsorship portal. to take themselves or their organisation forward through sponsorship.

This new headquarters with its ample space for warehousing, deliveries and parking was very necessary for the continued growth of the
company which had been restricted by the increasing pedestrianisation of York’s historic centre which made delivery and customer parking a problem. The wholesale side of the business moved to Claxton Hall, the 60,000 sq foot warehousing was perfect for deliveries and distribution.
